@APEXFEED01 @TheMoneyApe Article 5 of the NATO treaty has only been triggered once…October 2021 when NATO troops played a major part in invasion of Iraq. Denmark suffered highest losses per head of capita. Trump started Iran invasion as a proxy for Netanyahu, the NATO treaty does not apply.

@TheMoneyApe He’s not lying though. 🤷🏾‍♂️ Why are we funding everyone else's security if they don't have our backs when it counts? The math ain't mathing. 🇺🇸📉 ​The era of the U.S. being the world's piggy bank is officially over. 💸🚫 Step up or step out, simple as that. No cap. 🧢🔥

@carltonkirby We’ve enjoyed countless summer tours of France and Italy together but the time has come to say goodbye. Discovery + is very shortly to be swallowed into an expensive super channel. A great shame, you won’t notice, but I’ll miss you, Thanks for the fun, take care

#2024budget Apparently NI is to be cut by 2%. Does nothing for pensioners. I recall that NI was increased not that long ago to help fund social care. Obviously the government does not like older people.

@currys Made in store purchase, including delivery & installation. Wait in all day yesterday - no sign of delivery. Call this morning…sorry, order cancelled! Don’t know how, no refund made, no contact..”you’ll have to go into store to sort it out”. Customer Service?

#ILEZ don’t understand the fear…it impacts few vehicles. Why is there talk of ceasing to support a policy that reduces pollution? Show courage

@youmesushi I tried…you opened in Telford, not yet offering delivery so I made the trip into town only to be told by the sales prevention officer “we don’t do takeaway”. Your website promotes you as takeaway restaurant chain, what’s going on?

#energybills Over the past week my 100% renewable electricity cost me a factor of three more that my gas cost. On my travels I witnessed diesel fuel range from £1.74 down to £1.34 a litre. Still too many profiteering.

#fuelcosts Last week I was in Cornwall and paid £1.62 a litre for diesel…today in north Herefordshire I paid £1.32. Diesel was cheaper than petrol & I was £15 better off. Why aren’t our MPs all over this?

@stiptop1 We all want a functioning NHS but it is patently not fit for purpose today, primarily due to aged and poor infrastructure. Do we keep repairing the car or is it time for a new one? Additional revenue funding will not fix it.

@stiptop1 It’s an interesting debate…do we continue to throw money at the NHS (more funding) or do we need fundamental changes supported by investment (a more efficient service designed to meet needs in 2030)?

#Election2024 The left of the Labour Party & the right of The Conservative Party will determine the outcome. Currently they are both in self destruction mode…quite remarkable.

@StigAbell Read yours last week…thoroughly enjoyed it. Romance, mystery meets the reality of life in a small isolated community.

I’ve not done the Friday shelf challenge for a while. You know the rules: you can only pick one up to read for a quiet afternoon. Which is it and why? You don’t HAVE to pick mine, obvs.

The second Silver Over the Bridge event of 2023 will take place on Sunday 30th April in aid of Telford First Responders. Pop along to the iron bridge between 10am and 4pm and help us to raise much needed funds for this great cause.

@RobertJenrick Let’s not forget the added costs…you have introduced Police & Crime Commissioners and Adult Social Care precepts. Council tax is a very flawed system and needs total revision.

There’s no such thing as an average Council Tax. The only way to compare is band to band. On that basis Conservative Councils charge less. If you want to know what Labour councils are like, just ask residents of Croydon, Slough, Nottingham, Liverpool…
Rachel Reeves@RachelReevesMP

On average, Labour councils charge £345 less than Conservative councils. We are already making a difference to working people’s lives, and in government we will make every part of the country better off. That’s the choice on May 4th. A better Britain.
